Not In My Name marks Youth Day with call to break the cycle of injustice

# Not In My Name has rejected Youth Day celebrations and are demanding justice. Marking 49 years since the Soweto Uprising, the group says young people, especially women and children, remain oppressed by violence, poverty, and exclusion. With youth unemployment escalating, the group calls for urgent change across society. It urges government, business, and communities to act, honouring lives lost and demanding dignity, justice, and equality for all.
